Virat Kohli's 84 off 98 balls powered India to a 4-wicket victory over Australia in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 semi-final in Dubai. Kohli became the fastest batter to surpass 8,000 ODI chase runs, breaking Sachin Tendulkar’s record. Shreyas Iyer (45) and KL Rahul (42*) provided crucial support as India chased 265 with 11 balls to spare. Kohli also awarded player of the match for his crucial innings. ĤHardik Pandya’s 28-run cameo added late momentum. Mohammed Shami (3/42) led India’s bowling attack. India reached its third consecutive Champions Trophy final and will face either New Zealand or South Africa.
